Cisco Switching/Routing :: Dual Supervisors In A 6509-E Did Not Come Up Correctly
Jan 23, 2013
One of the two supervisors in an IOS 6509-E did not come back up after a power outage. The failed supervisor in slot 5 was replaced and it booted successfully. However, the supervisor in slot 5 only booted up to a "Cold" state. I did notice the Hw version of the replacement module in slot 5 is 4.9 while the Hw version in the supervisor module in slot 6 is 4.8. What command do I need to issue to bring the supervisor module in slot 5 from "Cold" to "Hot"? [code]

I have a customer that has a Catalyst 6509 with two Supervisor VSS capable and my Sales team sell another 6509 with just one Supervisor VSS capable. Simple question: Will VSS configuration will recognize that I have three Supervisors? It will work as QUAD-SUP solution or as a normal VSS solution?

what the usb ports are used for on the supervisor cards?
I want to back up my file system, can I use a USB stick in the USB port to do this ? or are they for console use ?

I have 2 x 6513 each with dual supervisor 720, and need to recover the enable password, is there a better method than removing one supervisor, disabling redundancy and performing password recovery on the single active supervisor module , before re-inserting the second supervisor and re-enabling SSO/RPR on the still active module.

I have two Nexus 5596UP that will be connected together via VPC-Peerlink. From there I want to connect both 5596UP's to a 6509-VSS via VPC.The Nexus 5596UP's will be essentially layer 2 switches, all routing will be done the 6509-VSS's.

I am trying to work up a config based on equipment that was ordered before I joined my current employer.
I will be deploying N2Ks at the top of each rack. Each N2K will be dual homed to two different N5K's. Being new to the Nexus, I understand that the N2K's have no brains and are dependent on the N5K's they connected to. Wasnt sure how to tell each 5K that the 2K that was dual connected to it needed to be able to move between N5K's based on failure/availability. I havent been able to find a sample config of what this will look like anywhere on the Nexus section of the Cisco site.
The next step after this will be to connect N5K_1 to blade on a 6509 and N5K_2 to a different blade on the same 6509. I will be installing two of the 10Gig blades in the 6509. Havent been able to find any sample configs on what this would look like either. We are upgrading the sup engines on the 6509 to the new 2T version.

I have the Cisco VSS consisting two chassis 6509.I have the system Active-Dual detection via Enhanced PAgP with one neighbor - standalone cisco 3750. All works good.I want to add one more neighbor - cisco stack 3750x with 3 members. Will this scheme work? And what is in danger, if the stack is split into two parts?

I have a two fiber connection from our Central Office(6513) to Remote office (6509). I have a requirement that on the remote office if one of the fiber goes down, the second fiber should work as a failover. I am planning to use SUP720-3B SFP to connect to the CO.
Can I connet one fiber to Sup720-3b G5/1 & another fiber connection to G5/2? or Can I connet one fiber to Sup720-3b G5/1 & another fiber connection to G6/2? I am running EIGRP between sites. Any sample config.

I received an replacement supervisor from Cisco to swap out the failed standby supervisor. I wanted to check if I can pull out the failed supervisor supervisor and insert the replacement supervisor while the switch is still on. In other words, is it hot swappable? Also, will this operation cause interruption of switching inside the 4507R switch?

Today we have 2 VSS, and are about to buy another two 6500 chassies to bulid a new VSS. Our currens chassies have supervisor 720, and the new one will probably have SUP2T
We have a network design that allowes us to run on a single chassie per VSS if we have hardware failure. This means that in a really worst case scenario we need to move around hardware to have 3 system up and running (that would mean multiple failures on all systems... so really really worst case scenario )
So here is my first question. Can I run a VSS with different supervisors in the chassies? Second question: If I want to upgrade a VSS from SUP720 to SUP2T, cna I run 2 supervisors per chassie (quad supervisor VSS) where one supervisor is SUP720 and one is SUP2T?

I understand that my questions seems to be rather strange cos supervisors is rather old (Sup1A especially). But i am interested in understanding what puprpose were in production SUP32. I cant find out enough differencies between Sup1A with MSFC2 and Sup32 to understand what reasons lead to deploying new sup in none fabric supervisor series.
Both supervisors have same perfomance - 15Mpps and have limitation on backplane bandwith of 32 Gbps (cos both use swithing bus), both supervisors equipped with MSFC2 and etc. Differencies i found:
SUP 32 have 10Gbe ports support (but this seems to be doubtful enhancement - with it perfomance GE ports seems to be more appropriate technology isnt it?) SUP1A equipped with PFC, SUP32 with PFC3BSUP32 deploys CEF (what is benefit of CEF if perfomance same?)

I would like to make a design with 4 Nexus 5596UP. 2 of them equipped with Layer 3 Expansion Module so they can serve as core layer and the other 2 Nexus used as Layer 2 for aggregation server layer.The 2 Nexus in the core layer will run HSRP and will peer with ISP via BGP for Internet connection The 2 Nexus in the aggregation layer will be configured as layer 2 device and have FEX and switches connected to them.What I am ensure of is how the vpc and port-channel configuration should look like between the 4 nexus. What I was thinking is to run vpc between the 2 Nexus in the aggregation layer and between the 2 Nexus in the core layer. Than I was thinking of connecting each Nexus in the aggragtion layer to both Nexus in the core layer using port-channel and vice-versa.

I have a Catalyst 3750 switch configured in a network. I would like an additional 3750 switch as a "hot" standby. A 2nd 3750 switch was purchased, and the same configuration was entered in to the new switch, so I have 2 switches with the exact same configuration.
When I move the connections to the new switch, I have a few VLANs that do not come up. One VLAN does come up and work normally. The VLANs in question show down, protocol down, and a show ip route reveals routes to the networks on these VLANs are not there When I put everything back on the original switch, everything works normally.
Why would the new switch not work with the exact same configuration?

and i see output "show interface Po4A" up up on switch-1, "show interface Po4B" up up on switch-2
5.- In the show running-config not appear configured Po4A and Po4B. it only show on outputs
6.- Po4A and Po4 was not configured on neither switches, my question is why appear Po4A and Po4B on switch-1 and switch-2 respectively? and why Po4 appear in down down.
7.- I solved this issue by shutdown and not shutdown to the interfaces on both routers, currently all is OK.

we've had an issue with our network, we have 2 6509 connected with redundancy, which are connected with 2 x 4900 Switches, from which are connected to a ESX Chassis for visualization, the thing is that the ESX stopped working, and the 4900 switches, and the main core were suffering from overload, they hang on it very well, in order to stop the overload, one of the links to the ESX Chassis were disconnected from one of the 4900 switches. The CPU usage from the 4900 and the core(6509) went down below 40%, and then they started to migrate the virtual servers from the chassis to another 2 chassis that were added right after. They were actually working well, but suddenly the 6509 changed to the other supervisor after everything was OK. We were wondering what could have been the cause of this, maybe the virtual servers migrations, maybe the overload from the ESX ? We also had a few question, is there any need to reload the cores every few months as a planned task ? Because the cores have been up for more than 1 year. And also is there any kind of of tool to monitor the CPU status, or the status overall from the cores or the switches ?

The have around 80 staff and I think the current infrastructure is overkill for the size of the company. The current kit is old and they have no GB ethernet ports. They currently have:-
Core Switch:
1x Cisco c6509with a 48 port fast ethernet module (WS-X6248-RJ-45)
and an 8 port fibre module (WS-X6408A-GBIC)
I'm looking to replace this with something with 72 ethernet ports and 8 fibre ports
Access Switches:
2x 3500Replacement needs at least 48 ports and 2 fibre modules each
and 2x 5500Replacement needs at least 72 ports and 2 fibre modules each.

If client gateway = 192.168.64.9 then next-hop = 192.168.64.8 else use default-route 0.0.0.0
I know it's possible to do a route-map match ip-address ACL list. But is it possible to match on gateway?
Some info about hardware and config:
6509-E in VSS (IOS 12.2(17r)SX5) withVS-S720-10G supervisor.
All routes are static, IP for 192.168.64.9 is on SVI vlan.

I have two ISPs. Each is on it's own subnet connected to the 6509 MSFC/Switch. FW1 is on 100.1.100.0/30 and FW2 is on 200.1.200.0/30 subnet. My goal is route all traffice going to the Internet from subnet 10.133.3.0/24 to FW1 and all other subnets across the organization to FW2. I am not sure if I need to use ACL / Static route combo, or just a static routes or ACLS?

I would like to ask you if it's possibile to block routing between some Vlan for just once of them.
Maybe I can explain better:
I've got a Cisco 6509 with 4 configured vlan interfaces
Int Vlan 10 10.10.1.0/24
Int Vlan 20 10.10.2.0/24
Int Vlan 30 10.10.3.0/24
Int Vlan 40 10.10.4.0/24
Vlan "10" is the phone voip Vlan and it must not talk with the others Vlan. The others Vlan can comunicate normally except with Vlan "10".
Pratically Vlan "10" needs to be isolated from the others.
This equirement comes becouse Vlan 10 is wireless and has the WEP key encryption (very weak protocol). Some Phone couldn't support the WPA2 key and I need to avoid an unauthorized external client, cracking the WEP key and connecting to this WiFi, could have free access to the others Vlan.

I have a problem on my catalyst 6509 on which I would like to do the following things :
I have some Vlans in which multicast is enabled.
In tose Vlan theres is a router which is default router for equipements.
I had enabled multicast routing because some Vlan needs to exchange multicast informations, but I wolud like to make difference between Multicast traffic. For example I have 5 vlans:
Vlan 1 and 2 need to exchange Multicast informations but the don't need multicast information from Vlan 3 and 4
Vlan 3 and 5 need to exchange Multicast informations but the don't need multicast information from Vlan 1 and 2
Vlan 5 is independant Vlan but doesn't need to have multicast information from all others vlan.
Last problem, equipement on differents vlan can use the same Mulkticast group address. In this case, Multicast routing is not working between Vlan 1 to Vlan 2 and Vlan 3 to Vlan 4.

I have 2 6509-E chassis with SUP-720-VSS and classic line cards :-(. on October 2011 the switch reached 100% CPU on both devices and the entire network went down. Customer restarted the core so we lost all the log files and couldnt find out any root cause on the same. TAC engineer suggested to have some script configured on the system in case of CPU shooting up above 70%, it will create a file in flash and keep appending the logs to the same. Last week i got call from customer saying that the CPU again went high for around a minute on both the cores. Last time i added CoPP also on the switch in order to prevent the CPU reaching 100%. Still it went high and from the captured logs i saw that the process created the high CPU was Port Manager Per and SSH process. Attached the file created by the netdr capture command.

We have connected a single F5 box with dual links to 2 different Cisco Catalyst switches using 802.1Q trunks. F5 is configured with RSTP mode and on Cisco Switch RPVST+ is configured.STP root bridge is hardcoded on the Cisco side. Loop Guard is globally enabled.On F5 STP link type is Auto, STP Edge port is disabled since that port is connected to the cisco switch.When we are failing over the F5 primary link to the secondary link we see 'Loop Inconsistent' on the cisco switch and things dont work after the failover.We have tried configuring the F5 as STP passthrough but that doesn't fix out the issue.I have checked out the forums and found out following recommendations
1. Configuring MSTP bw F5 and Cisco for better compatibility (Not possible from Cisco side because of a major change in large production setup)
2. Configuring VSS in Cisco switches (not possible due to hardware limitation)
3. Connecting F5 using single links to each switch (redundancy compromised)
I am wondering that on which default vlan does the F5 STP instance0 sends the STP BPDUs ? the term used on Cisco side is native vlan and others use PVIDs; that F5 default vlan should match the native vlan on cisco trunk side.

Tonight we were performing an IOS upgrade on our 6509 VSS to 122-33.SXI6. Both 6509's have dual Supervisor cards installed. Initially we had problems with switch 2 slot 5 supervisor returning to rommon however switch 2 slot 6 supervisor loaded correctly. After manually setting the boot var in rommon, switch 2 slot 5 supervisor reloaded correctly.
After all supervisor's were online we noticed when looking at " show switch virtual redundancy" that sw 1 & 2 slot 6 supervisors were running the correct IOS version but sw 1 & 2 slot 5 were running different IOS versions, however when looking at the show version we are running on the upgraded IOS??? See output below...
Why the active supervisor has loaded the incorrect IOS the VSS is running on the upgraded IOS? I have verified the IOS was copied correctly to each supervisor bootdisk, I see no issues.
My Switch Id = 1 Peer Switch Id = 2 Last switchover reason = none Configured Redundancy Mode = sso Operating Redundancy Mode = sso

We are looking to avoid the need to install an additional device in our network as our core 6509s are not being pushed by any stretch. However, we are having an issue getting the 6509 to assign DHCP addresses and perform NAT.
Most interfaces and V LAN's on the 6509 are using public IPs and have BGP routing at the edge. We have a trunk up link coming into the 6509 on a ws-6816 card via a SMF GBIC in slot 9, port 2 that feeds a wifi link where we are looking to provide guest access to our network.
We created 2 V LAN s on the switch 20 and 21. We assigned a private IP and network to the VLAN20 interface and assigned a new public /30 sub net ip to the V LAN 21 interface. The following configuration was applied which I thought was the required configuration based on how we would typically configure ISR routers for the same services...
ip dhcp excluded-address 10.200.200.1
!
ip dhcp pool WiFi_Pool
network 10.200.200.0 255.255.255.0
default-router 10.200.200.1
dns-server 4.2.2.1 4.2.2.2
[ code]...
What am I missing in this configuration? Note that if I create an access switch port for v LAN 20 on the switch and plug a laptop in directly to the 6509, the laptop is unable to receive a DHCP address. If I assign the laptop an address in the 10.200.200.0 /24 range manually, I can ping 10.200.200.1 from the laptop, however, the laptop will not get to the internet as it appears to be failing to perform nat.

I have a network with four 6509s in a ring with 10Gb links. Two adjacent switches are at the home office, the other two at the DR site. The switches at each location are physically similar to each other with respect to what blades are in them. We went through an upgrade from SUP-720's to VS-SUP-720's recently, only at the DR site - basically a practice, with the home office conversion hopefully taking place next weekend.
We initially just brought up the two chassis separately, in non-VSS formation (stand-alone). So far, so good - everything was connected, all traffic was passiing, all links were up, everything was reachable: EVERYTHING worked. Then we made the conversion: step-by-step from the cisco.com page; create a virtual domain, make one switch switch 1, the other switch 2, create differently numbered port-channels on each 6509, add the SUP 10Gb links to the port-channel, do the conversion.
Here's where the trouble started. First of all, the two 10Gb links back to home office created a spanning-tree loop and we had to shut down one of the links. (Is there something that needs to be configured on those links to turn spanning tree on? Does VSS conversion turn stp off?) Secondly, though it worked while in stand-alone mode, the copper blade in the standby 6509 stopped passing traffic - it would take config, the links would come up, but you could not ping across those links. Interestingly enough, there was an access switch with links to each of the copper blades, and having them both up also caused a spanning-tree loop. adding a new port-channel and putting both links in it did nothing to alleviate the loop. This leads me to believe that stp is not working properly. I reiterate, that even though the loop occurred, nothing else plugged into that blade was pingable.
